    breaktime replied to nurse1219's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I agree 100%. Like I stated, I'm not even out of school myself yet, and I've been looking at these programs too. I think it's very beneficial to research programs now. I'm kind of hoping that if I...

  9. Moving on to another program

    breaktime replied to Nursing Student 09's topic in General Nursing

  12. Resignation Letter- please inspect

    breaktime replied to Bumashes's topic in Nursing Professionalism
